Editors "EBM" Blood Records [pias] Blood123 Limited Edition Double Album Exclusive chequerboard black and white vinyl edition housed in a silver foiled sleeve and limited to 1200 copies. Hand-numbered, as 341/2000, although only 1200 were actually produced.
"EBM" is the first album with new band member Benjamin John Power, aka Blanck Mass, who was announced as a full-time member in April with the album’s first single ‘Heart Attack’.
Benjamin John Power explains: “There is a strong physicality to this record. "EBM" started its life with the intention of connecting with people and filling a very physical space. There is also however an emotional physicality running throughout; An urgency and a sense of panic. An unease. Even in its more tender moments there is a yearning for connection.”
A band who have never stood still creatively, "EBM" is a breathlessly heavy step up and Editors’ most leftfield material yet – a thrilling, unrelenting thrust of full-bodied electro-industrial rock. The album title is an acronym of Editors and Blanck Mass but also a knowing reference to Electronic Body Music, the potent sound that originated in the 1980s and which has hugely influenced Editors’ new material, where the synths of bands like Nitzer Ebb, Front 242 and DAF hammer darkly amongst smoke machines, strobe lights and the smell of leather.
All 6 of Editors’ studio albums over their 17-year career have charted in the UK top 10, with 2 scoring number 1’s, and their debut, "The Back Room", being shortlisted for the Mercury Prize.
Limited edition of 1200 hand-numbered but numbered on 2000 (as was originally intended).
